The Mini Page

For almost 50 years, The Mini Page, a weekly newspaper for children, has entertained and instructed kids in classrooms and homes. Each week, The Mini Page presents fascinating facts on a different topic in a way that kids can understand and relate to.

Each week's topic is supported by word puzzles, connect the dots puzzles, recipes, drawings and pictures. The new page will be updated each Friday and can be found on the right column.

About NIE

News in Education (NIE) is a cooperative effort between NC schools, business partners and The News & Observer to promote the use of the newspaper as an educational tool - a "living textbook". Our goal is to increase literacy and citizenship and help students become successful members of our community.

The NIE program supports K-12 grade level education in North Carolina by providing digital subscriptions of our newspaper to educators and students, free of charge.
